Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Chapter 394 Uncle, Great Grandfather’s Grave Was Dug Up

When talking about the baby in his wife's belly, Jia Dongxu couldn't hide the smile on his face. He grinned and said, "I secretly gave the doctor a red envelope, and the doctor said that the baby in my wife's belly is a son. Our Jia family has a third generation, which is really a cause for celebration."

Bai Xiuying looked a little unnatural. She and her husband Yi Zhonghai had tried to have a son for so many years. But wishes are always wishes, and there was still no movement in her belly. Sometimes Bai Xiuying even wondered if she had done something bad in her previous life, which made her have a bad ending in this life. She sighed and looked at her husband's happy expression, knowing that what her husband wanted most was to have his own child.

Shaking her head helplessly, she went to the next room. Only by doing more housework could Bai Xiuying forget about these things. She opened the stove door and added some firewood. She filled the water tank with water and put it in the black pot, preparing to take a good bath tonight.

Jia Dongxu took the money and left triumphantly, leaving Yi Zhonghai with a smile on his face. When Bai Xiuying came out of the next room, Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "Xiuying, Dongxu has already told us. When the baby in Dongxu's wife's belly is born, we will be the grandparents of the child. This is much better than that bastard Shazhu. I am so happy. I am really so happy."

Bai Xiuying was stunned at first, and then a smile appeared on her face. But she thought about Jia Zhang's character again, and said coldly, "Zhonghai, I think you are still..." Before she finished speaking, there was a hurried knock on the door. Yi Zhonghai frowned and opened the door, wondering who would knock on his door in the middle of the night?

The door was opened, and a young man appeared outside. The young man knew Yi Zhonghai, and they were from the same village. Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Er Gouzi, why is it you?" Er Gouzi's full name was Yi Jianjun, and he was the son of Yi Zhonghai's cousin. He liked gambling, and he always gambled big.

Yi Jianjun said with a red face, "Uncle, something bad has happened. Your father, or great-grandfather's grave has been dug up." Yi Zhonghai's face turned red, and he pointed at Yi Jianjun tremblingly and said, "What did you say? My father's grave has been dug up. How is this possible? My father has been dead for many years. No matter how deep the hatred is, you shouldn't seek revenge on a dead person."

Yi Jianjun sat on the stool, and Bai Xiuying beside him quickly poured a cup of water for her cousin. Yi Zhonghai said to his wife with a dark face, "You are such a tactless person. Jianjun ran so far to deliver a letter to our family, and you gave me a cup of water. You are slapping my face. Hurry up, make a cup of tea for Jianjun, and add some sugar."

Yi Jianjun's face lit up. There were no drinks like those in later times. It was great to drink some good tea. If you add some sugar, it would be perfect. Bai Xiuying nodded quickly, went to the kitchen and took out a bag of tea, and made another cup for her nephew with a smile.

Yi Zhonghai's hometown is quite far from Qin Huairu's hometown. Yi Zhonghai came to the city before liberation a few years ago and made a name for himself. Yi Zhonghai is the only child. Although he has cousins ​​in Yijiazhuang, they all have their own sons. Whenever he returns to Yijiazhuang, his cousins ​​mock him in some way.

As time went by, Yi Zhonghai didn't want to go back to Yijiazhuang anymore. He was really afraid that his relatives in the countryside would get involved with him. What are the living conditions in the countryside? Yi Zhonghai knew about virtue. He sat quietly aside and watched Yi Jianjun finish the water in the cup. Yi Jianjun then said slowly, "Uncle, my great grandfather's grave has been dug up."

Bai Xiuying frowned and said, "Dad, there's nothing in the tomb, how come it was dug up?" Yi Jianjun sighed and said, "We don't know about that. We found it this morning when we were offering sacrifices to our ancestors. Fortunately, the coffin was not opened, and the remains of my great grandfather have not seen the sun. But his grave has been destroyed, and my dad asked me to come and inform you."

Yi Zhonghai clenched his fists and finally sighed. He thought quickly and said to Bai Xiuying, "Xiuying, quickly prepare a room for Jianjun. He will definitely not be able to go home tonight. Make some food for Jianjun. I will ask for leave tomorrow morning, and then we will go back to Yijiazhuang."

Bai Xiuying nodded quickly, thought for a moment and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Why don't we find a few people and go to Yijiazhuang with you tomorrow?" Yi Zhonghai subconsciously wanted to refuse. What's the point of taking people back to Yijiazhuang? But Bai Xiuying said, "This can at least give you some ideas. After all, we haven't been to Yijiazhuang for a long time. Let's buy some gold ingots, candles and other things and burn them in front of Dad's grave."

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and nodded. They hadn't been to Yijiazhuang for a long time. Their father's grave had been dug up, so they had to go there. And they couldn't just go empty-handed. They had to set up a banquet in Yijiazhuang to let the people in Yijiazhuang know that he, Yi Zhonghai, was still alive.

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said to Yi Jianjun, "Jianjun, you should rest at your uncle's house for one night. We will go back to Yijiazhuang tomorrow morning. I will go out to buy some things for tomorrow so that you don't end up with nothing." Yi Jianjun nodded and sat aside to continue drinking tea. Bai Xiuying went to the kitchen to cook some food for her nephew.

Yi Zhonghai went out, thought about it and went to Mrs. Long's house first. Mrs. Long was also surprised when she heard the news. Mrs. Long sat on the armchair and said, "Zhonghai, this person must be here to avenge you. Your father has been dead for many years. If he really wanted to avenge your father, wouldn't your father's grave have been dug up long ago?"

Yi Zhonghai also thought it made sense. He scratched his head and said, "But I really have no impression. I have offended people in the courtyard, but they couldn't possibly know where my hometown is. Besides, even if I offended someone, it wouldn't make such a big fuss. Digging up other people's ancestral graves would be a fight to the death."
